I hope as things get worse in the USA Trump was only able to do this because of our corrupt Supreme Court and the GOP!! Every single one of them threw this country and its citizens under the bus because of a short term political power and have ZERO spines. It’s sickening!!!

If Putin is a murder? Then so is America? So is Ukraine? So is Palestine? So is Israel? In the 1990 Middle Eastern war USA ? tried so diligently to destroy the WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION!! ?? killing so many innocent people calling them terrorists. What do we call this action? GODLY ? Everyone is trying to show their power through Global Politics that they are greater than others and trying to rule every country in this world before fixing their own. Trudeau has brought Canada to poverty in his so called successful 2 terms government. He should think before he talks or like Hitler he should rehearse his speech in front of a mirror before opening his mouth in public, it's a whole lot of crap coming out in public and losing his sane ability. ?

Treudeua has only 20 days left in power!!! Who cares what he had to say

Man Canda show them your power shut them lights off for a few days.

Cut the power

What's your plan for tomorrow? Are you a leader or will you follow? Are you a fighter or will you cower? It's our time to take back the power!

Canada has done nothing but put out propaganda. Canada is a Liberal country that interferes with our elections. Now if I want to know how to adjust my fake eyebrows or how to talk tough while having a small population and only one neighbor that happens to be an ally and the world's super power then I'll ask Trudeau and the Canadians for their input. In the meantime, their people don't work and the Canadians depend on us for their rights to the sea since they don't spend much on defense. America will win. Canada won't exist without America.

I vote we flip the switch. Shut the power off to the 30 states that get a majority of their power from Canada.

Trump needs to be removed from power immediately. Congress needs to do their job!!!!!

Now that’s a true leader!!! Why America?!? Look at the consequences of putting this incompetent person in power!!

Trump knows he's hurting America. That's exactly his and Putin's goal. He's a terrorist doing everything in his power to destroy America. He's only getting away with the because of his PRIVILEGE. YT people don't understand this. Obama could NEVER get away with this. He couldn't even wear a tan suit without everybody jumping all over him. HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE. Trump needs to be fired and locked up. He's a danger to society

Trudeau is a moron that is desperate to cause a crisis whether it be World War III in Europe or a massive trade war against the US just so he has an excuse to suspend democracy and keep the liberal party and power by getting rid of those pesky elections

Reading these comments I’m wondering how the hell Trump got into power. He doesn’t seem to have much support

Putting tariffs on Canadian (or Mexican) goods is like charging your neighbor to borrow your power drill.

Remember we didn’t all put that crazy maniac in power. The idiots that put him in power will be to blame as businesses close and we all loose our jobs. Pray for America.

Aussie supporting Canada; No way will i travel to America while this Administration is in power, no way will i buy American goods while this administration is in power.

So jealous Canada has a real adult in power unlike our elected baby and cheif and our unelected billionaire baby

Hmmm. More threats. Canada has always been a bunch of crybabies, but now they're about to find out how powerful President Trump really is. ???

Russia targets civilians with artillary daily. That makes them murderers. Putin is therefore the Murderer-in-chief. Justin is correct. Truth to Power!

Don't threaten us, you don't have enough power to do that. We don't even know you exist up there, so take a chill pill.

Hitler came to power legally

Thank you PM Trudeau. \nMany of us here in the US are seemingly are without representation and voices. And many if us realize you are only taking actions only in response to these acts by our current bad actors in positions of power.?

The world should slap America economic sanctions along with all the tariffs then Canada should cut off oil & gas then in the summer cut off the power & really watch them sweat then they will be begging us to turn everything back on .

This is about more than the fentanyl. This is about Canada not pulling their own weight when it comes to defensive spending, this is about getting them to allow Us manufacturered cars into their markets, this is about convincing Canadian companies to build factories in the US… etc Trumps tariffs are creating hundreds of billions, soon to be trillions of dollars worth of investments into our market. We hold the largest market in the world. We hold the power here, not Canada. And bitching about relations with our allies isn’t going to sway conservative voters come the next election. When we win this “trade war” something tells me CNN will whine about how we won it instead of giving credit to the current administration for doing better by our citizens.

Cut the power please

He's fantastic...THIS is what a TRUE leader looks like MAGA...he inspires his citizens to work together and that's what makes their country GREAT.\nDonald Trump has purposefully worked towards dividing American citizens from day ONE, for the simple reason of his GREED for money and lust for power, and it's laughable that his slogan is 'make America great again' because anyone with a moderately functioning brain, knows that an extremely divisive country will NEVER be 'great'.\nHell...with trump as your leader...you're barely even functioning thus far, after his 'leadership' of a few weeks. God help you all after a few months, or YEARS!! What a FOOL.

Why is Trudeau still in power ,he's a criminal elitist with no regard for his citizens ,

Canadians want trudeau gone.. and he resigned... but he's still in power? And calling someone else a dictator.. hope the Canadian courts decide that proroguing parliament to stay in power was illegal.

This is the same guy that closed peoples bank accounts during covid starving families where truck drivers and farmers couldn't make a living a dictator driven by self power and here we have u.s citizens saying they agree with him and his sugar coating if that's the case move to Canada we have become to dependent on other countries supplying us with what we can produce ourself its time to get back to work made in America for Americans there is nothing we can't do if we come together and stop believing the hype that we need other countries

Im English, what a fantastic understandable speech. Trump has gone mad, a lot of people will start turning against him, especially him siding with putin the murderous dictator in modern times. All people in power should stand united in a crazy world. Well done canada and their superb leader.

America can keep their goods.\n Trump has created all this and the rest of the world should wash their hands of Trump's deals.\n\nThe American people should be going crazy because of the power they have given Trump.\n\nCrazy times

Justin Trudeau is sucha clown ?? just turn off the power and call it a day

I think Americans are going to have to learn the hard way that we voted in a terrible man who is even more unrestrained than the first time. The best outcome of this lose-lose situation for Republican voters is to feel the financial pain of Trump's actions. Maybe it can disillusion his cult following of heedlessly surrendering their voting power to him. With enough opposition pressured on Republicans in Congress, they may finally find a backbone and stand up for all Americans while the Democrats twiddle their thumbs.

I’ve been opposed to Trudeau since he came into power. I’ve always thought of him as a deluded maniac. But this speech was really impressive…. Well done.

I need to apologize to the world on behalf of all the non cult-led people here, for the evil in power holding us hostage here in America. I'm heartbroken to be American. I'm devastated the WHOLE WORLD hates us now.

how long, I wonder, can American voters avoid the reality and consequences of what they've done in putting Trump back into power?

I AM ?? CANADIAN. How mad are we? Furious and overtly patriotic. I will do everything within my limited economic (non-billionaire), physical and social power to protect Canada against american aggression. You have threatened our democratically elected government, natural resources, economy and personal freedom. By electing “that person” as your leader and aligning with authoritarian dictatorships like Russia, you have threatened not only Canada and Ukraine but world peace. You have threatened your own economic and personal freedom. Prime Minister Trudeau spoke succinctly in a comprehensible way to let you, the american people, know the seriousness of your choice. If you understand what you have done and realize the implications, then peacefully protest (if that is still allowed with your evolving fascist/populist/authoritarian government). Contact your local, state/territorial and federal government officials. You can let your governors, senators and representatives know that you do not agree with the government’s actions and the subsequent hardship it will impose not only on the world but on you, your family and neighbours. Make change happen in a peaceful, non violent manner, while you still can. We didn’t ask for nor want this absurdly unnecessary confrontation but when attacked, we will fight our old friends and historic allies. Elbows up Canada!

Desperately trying to hold onto power by riding the Trump hate among Canadians. Speaking as a Canadian, get this incompetent criminal, perhaps the worst PM Canada has ever had, out so we can get someone who knows what they're doing to manage relations with the US.

???… Trudeau is a joke, I’ll pay the inflation price to teach people like him a lesson. Fair is fair, and with him in power Canada is not our ally!!!

Donald has done more to unite the world than most, unfortunatly its at the cost of US power and respect

Rich people like inflation. The last scorching inflation we had in the 80s, CDs for 3 years and only 10,000 dollars drew 13.5%, there was also high, high, high unemployment, home loans were 18.5% interest with good credit. This set the farmers up or losing their farms and the Savings and Loan collapse and the subsequent 113 Billion Bail out. This was WITHOUT gutting our federal agencies, cutting back on SNAP and Medicaid and firing federal employees and gutting the agencies' ability to do oversight with the Offices of Inspector General. I can't even tell you why Dept. of Defenses is calling off our cyber defenses against Russia who hacks everything in America nuclear power plants, hydro, etc. Got my gas today - our refineries are fitted for Canadian oil though it's not a 25% tariff but Canada could slap an export tax on it to be paid by us.

An excellent speech, truthful, powerful and to the point. As for the fentynol, well, not matter what you do, and no matter how much you spend, the CIA will still find a way to sneak it into the States just like they did with the cocaine epidemic THEY started in the 80s.

Prime Minister, I have not voted for you three times. I have not really agreed with your policies since you came to power. I have even thought that you did not know when to make a 'dignified departure. And now today when you have literally five days left before you step off the dais for good, I listen to you and am proud. This is what a leader does and says and I give you my respect and thanks as a fellow Canadian.

Great speech. But why did he not speak into the camera? Would have been more powerful.

It's never about WOKE. \nIt's never about Ukraine. \nIt's never about Antisemitism. \nIt's never about boarder protection. \nIt's only EVER about a tiny FRACTION of people with ALL the power knows as: \nBillionaires. \nThis is ALWAYS the why.

Every tool? SHUT OFF THEIR POWER AND OIL!!!!

Isn't Trudeau getting forced to resign? Why is he acting like he'll continue to be in power?

An American here in the Pacific Northwest. All I can say is that we love you Canadians! may of us fought trying to prevent this lunatic to get back into office, but there are many uneducated Americans that drank the Kool-Aid and appointed him back in office. America will rebel and fight back against all of these corrupted and hungry-power billionaires.

More and more obvious every day. Trump is owned by PUTIN! He acts as an enemy toward we American people, and toward our true allies. He MUST be removed from power immediately. He is compromised and unfit to lead or to represent the real United States of America!! Just look at all the damage he has done already!!!
